About Her Grief, Her Strength Podcast

Grieving loudly. Living boldly. Welcome to Her Grief, Her Strength, a podcast created by two moms navigating the complex worlds of grief, motherhood, and advocacy. As medical moms raising children with rare and terminal diagnoses, we’ve experienced the heartbreak, resilience, and strength that come with this journey. This podcast is more than just a space to share stories; it’s a community of support, understanding, and empowerment. Each episode dives into the raw, unfiltered realities of grief and caregiving, offering connection and hope to anyone who’s ever felt lost in the chaos. Together, we talk about the hard stuff: parenting through unimaginable circumstances, managing mental health, and finding strength in the smallest victories. We also explore actionable ways to advocate for change, whether it’s fighting for newborn screenings, navigating the medical system, or simply showing up for ourselves. Join us for heartfelt conversations, relatable stories, and a reminder that you’re never alone in this journey. Let’s grieve loudly, live boldly, and find strength together.

   Episode 02: You're the Expert: Advocacy in the Hospital Setting

   Hospital rooms are loud, overwhelming, and often filled with people who seem to know more than you. But here’s the truth: you are the expert on your child, your partner, your body — and your voice matters. In this raw and honest conversation, Rachel and Shelby share personal stories from hospital stays that shaped them, broke them, and taught them what real advocacy looks like. From missed meds and middle-of-the-night decisions to learning when to speak up (and how), this episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the medical world. Whether you’re caring for a medically complex child or learning to advocate for yourself, you’ll walk away with practical tips, scripts, and a lot of solidarity. 💬 Let’s talk about the power of your gut instinct, the messiness of hospital life, and why asking the “dumb questions” might actually save the day.
